Internship B3.1
Because of my interest in event organization and decoration design I want to start specializing already in this scene. Therefore, I want to do an internship within an event organization or decoration design company within the Netherlands, during B3.1 During my internship, I not only want to further refine my technical and design skills, but also learn how a professional team works together on large-scale events, who is involved in this process and how these all can lead to these unforgettable experiences we go through at festivals or events.
Courses b3.2
Because of my “CBL project 3” retake this semester, I decided to extend my study with an additional semester, so I cancelled courses which I will do next year after my internship. Courses I cancelled because of failing P3 where, designing connected experiences and designing actuated systems, more technical courses which I still want to take next year to develop more within TR and MDC, in which I have had limited development this year.
Final Bachelor project
Master
In my fourth year first semester, my FBP will take place. For my FBP project, I want to also develop my area of vision, within the festival scene. It could be interesting to collaborate with a client within the festival scene on a project. Squads that could be interesting for this are Artifice, as AI has a big future within design and we should learn how to cooperate with it; and Health and Inclusive design, as people connect through festivals and leave their daily lives which battles loneliness and relieves stress.
As of now, I am unsure if I want to pursue my studies after finishing my Bachelor of Industrial Design. If certain job opportunities emerge, I might start working after this study. But I might want to keep learning by extending my study with a master’s in industrial design, while really specializing in the field of Experience design, hopefully through light, sound, or decoration design. As shapes and forms within décor design have a lot in common with architecture, I also see that as a possible master to guide me to my vision. Festival organization and décor design is also a form of art, so a master’s in arts could also be a direction after this study.
